3. I mean the sole purpose of considering the twin turbo kit over the rear mount was cause its a twin turbo kit (not single). But then that brings me to my next question, if a rear mount is a sinlge turbo, then would a rear mount make the some amount of power on 93 octane than a front mount single turbo would?

4. I am trying to figure out which setup would make the best power on Premium gas. I'n guessing the rear mount would require things such as methanol and race fuel.
i had to break it down cause i got confused.

1. negligable difference IIRC but a twin turbo setup would create a wider powerband

2. yes indeed! thats why they make such a good street setup. power everywhere!

3. front mount makes more power cause its much more efficient then a rear mount granted all other factors are held constant

4. its actually reversed cause rear mounts dont need as much cooling cause they are farther from the engine. people with either setup usually do intercoolers and meth injection when they go high boost to keep everything in check
